This was one of my all-time favorite podcasts. It’s one of the firsts podcasts I got really into and continued to listen through the years. So sad it’s over☹️. I’ll miss the conversations, observations and laughs. Thanks so much for making me laugh and think.

As someone who lived in the Bay Area for seven years, their voices and insight brought me so much nostalgia. Yes they are basically friends in my head. I appreciate their commentary on pop culture that blends humor with societal insight. Every time their episodes come out, my day gets a little...Read full review »

40 min a month???! With today’s technology, even if miles apart, that’s all you are willing to do?! Abbie Cornish can conduct an interview with anyone in the most remote parts of the world for the sake of news reporting but all you guys can do is 40 min a month?!?! That’s very disappointing.

For so long, I had been looking for a thoughtful pop culture podcast that was fun, yet covered topics with depth (serious and/or comedic). I’m so happy that I discovered The Cooler a couple of years ago, and I love the topics that the wonderful hosts cover. For me, I’ve been thrilled to hear the...Read full review »

Me and two of my best buds listen to your podcast all the time and we’ve determined which of the three hosts most mirrors our personalities. The three of us agree that I’m a total Carly. This became especially evident on one episode where Emmanuel made a joke about the Rachel Ray/Rachel Roy...Read full review »

Smart, young hosts with excellent and hilarious social commentary. They are local and have taken local requests/ suggestions for show topics. Occasionally there is a history lesson/ recap and these are amazing gems. This podcast is intellegent, funny, and accessible. I am so glad I found it and...Read full review »

Really how can all the reviews be 5 star? Doesn’t make sense.
Cazzooo1 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/06/18
Without being stufffy and irrelevant. Honestly perfect host, they analyze feminist, woke and such baes

Who doesn't enjoy a good chat, a lot of laughter, and a little enlightenment? Kept bumping into this Podcast on NPR 1 -- always woke me from my sleep cycle as my inactive brain tuned in. Had no choice but to subscribe. Hope you do too.Read full review »

I never bother to write reviews but I felt compelled because I love this podcast so much! The Cooler manages to cover a lot of important topics while still being fun, and I am always excited when a new episode comes out.

These guys help me get through the work day. Love their take on just about everything (except when it comes to Emmanuel’s love for Taylor Swift). Awesome show!
Haydenws via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/28/18
This is absolutely my favorite podcast! Hilarious pop culture commentary with a heaping side of woke-ness. I love it.

I love the podcast and look forward to every episode!
jazzyphazzle via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/07/17
Discovered this podcast bc i am a huge fan of Emmanuel’s Poldark recaps! (And his other Masterpiece recaps as well). They always have me laughing so i had to check out the Cooler. I­t­ does not disappoint! The three hosts are lots of fun, wish i could hang with them too!
kace2923 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/16/17
Been a listener for over a year now. Saves me from boredom every week on the worst traffic day! Fun, quirky and fab!
harakkapoika995 via Apple Podcasts · Finland · 11/10/17
I look forward to listening to them every week 🤗❤️ I recommend for a good laugh.
aletheaanagal via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/27/17
I’ve been on board since the beginning and I love getting their different point of views on topics, while laughing at well crafted jokes, and getting lost in thought-provoking stories. SO much fun to listen to!
Huge fan like, for real via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/27/17
Consistently one of the best podcasts I listen to each week. The hosts have great chemistry, their topics are fun & interesting, and its just an overall enjoyable podcast. You can tell they have fun but also work hard to make a quality podcast. Love it!

I don't have my ear to the ground on any sort of news, and these dear people keep me in the pop culture loop.Read full review »

Emmanuel, Carly, and Jamedra are one of my weekly pleasures. My only complaint is that I'm not sitting there with them having a drink as we chat.Read full review »

I love this podcast! It's always great fun and a good mix of current topics that lots of people are talking about and some more leftfield weird bits. And in response to the mean person whose review I just saw, who called Carly (the English one) annoying, I think she's great and really...Read full review »

Top five podcast on my feed! Love listening to them every week.
groovybird via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/28/17
I absolutely ADORE this podcast. All three hosts are phenomenal people that have hilarious insight. I honestly laugh out loud at least once every episode.
Gfyfyfh via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/24/17
My week is always improved by the podcast. The topics are pop or pop-adjacent and yet, often things you didn't know. I also love the fact that they talk about racism, sexism, homophobia in a genuine, but often humorous way.Read full review »
M T. via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/03/17
I think this podcast would appeal to a lot of people but it doesn't hurt if you are a 30 something living in the Bay Area, which I am. I identify with Carly the most because we apparently have the exact same taste in cult classic movies and t.v. Jamedra and Emmanuel are equally as delightful,...Read full review »

This show makes me smile and their commentary is incredibly smart. They tackle complex social issues with humor and intelligence. Highly recommend!

The Cooler is my favorite podcast simply because it is fun, and upbeat and I can relate as a person born in the 80's. Keep up the good work you three.❤️❤️😘😘Read full review »

I'm so glad NPR is letting young people do their thing without interference. Interference is what is killing the spark of the younger generation. Creating a platform that truly reflects what our community stands for is integral to the progress of our nation.Read full review »

This podcast is simply fun and what I listen to every Friday afternoon with a cocktail. All three of the house have wonderful wit and diverse knowledge of pop culture. Have laughed out loud every single episode.

So glad I discovered The Cooler via pop culture happy hour! This is my new favorite- I even listened back to every previous episode once I caught up with the recents. I love checking in to see what the trio has in store every week! Keep it up- thanks for staying woke and keeping me woke

This is such a fun and intelligent podcast! I'm usually wary of podcasts where it's mostly people sitting around talking, but this is so much more than that. It's three funny, intelligent, witty, clever people sharing insights, being vulnerable, and generally making me happy. They...Read full review »
